Kinda Boring (Battle Royale)
When you start playing the game, it might be kinda fun for you, but after a couple weeks it just turns boring, every single match is literally the same thing.

Awful
olivergreer-1304019 May 2020
When I was 13 fort nite was all anyone talked about at my school so I assumed that it was the new Minecraft but when I finally played it, it was just so bland and not creative that a 7 year old could've designed it do not recommend this game is bad

It was fun for a while but not anymore
js-2533123 February 2021
It was addictive at first but I got bored after a while.

It's kinda just a small brain kids game now day. It's ironic that a company called "Epic Games" made Fornite. But at least it's a game I guess...

Mindless Fun Shooter
BadgerStorm434518 April 2020
Fortnite is a game that gets endless praise and endless hate. It deserves neither. Fortnite is a game where you can relax and have fun with friends. No narrative, no real goals other than to rank up and win games. With a lackluster "save the world" game mode which acts as a zombie survival shooter, Battle Royale has cemented itself as a fun and quick paced game that honest fun.

Stop saying that it's bad.
ImBoreddddd7 August 2022
Ok, don't get me wrong. It can be bad. There were some stupid changes. But the real issue is the community. The clickbait, the try hard, the weeper, and the inappropriate. I once joined a lobby to hear "Where the F)&@ we landing?" And so on, like I said. It can be bad but overall. It's the game that turned out good, but like so many other games. Minecraft, Rocket League, and COD, the community couldn't get their act together and it fell. Just sad.

Received too much hate.
sonoftnt6 April 2021
Overall the game is really fun to play. The has frequent updates which keeps it alive. The game also has a very intriguing storyline. Along with the storyline there are in game live events. You can't say the game is bad because the community is bad also. The community is beyond the games control. On top of everything, the game is free.

i need to say that its required skills
AvionPrince1621 February 2022
The game its not bad and it asking for skills (construction, aim, objects). And i kind like the game even if the construction make the game hard for me. It really need some skills for that and time. I enjoyed it anyway and its really interesting and can be very interesting with the mechanics that i found hard to master. And what other good point of the game its that all the developpers make some updates of the game and thats very good to see that.

Super overrated

Probably the only reason people still play it is because it is free and streamers... money.

nicolayaaj-3010314 August 2019
When it came out, the game was a solid 8, Everyone loved it and it was a good game

I played it and made a base with my friends and waited till the circle was small, camping in bushes

Now people only care about building and its not funny at all, people are tryhards and only kids

Fortnite=One of the most overrated/competitive games of 2017-2018
DoomGuy4486 May 2018
This game got boring when I played it the third time and the Battle Royale is overrated except for PUBG. The fanbase is terrible! If you hate the Minecraft fanboys then read the fortnite fanboy comments when someone say "Fortnite suck". I've been playing Doom³ (because I don't have Doom 2016 yet) for the past month and that's more addictive then this overhype game. Even GTA 5 is still more fun! Still better than Minecraft though.

Either you love it or hate it
The_Light_Triton4 February 2022
To me, Fortnite is a cash grab for epic games, designed to be colorful, bright and fun. As I get into my 30's, I find myself less & less interested in playing newer video games. They're getting way too complicated to follow along with anymore. A vast majority of games being made now are what I like to call "Interactive movies" where players can follow a storyline and not actually play a game. Back in the 1970s & 1980s, those were games, there were no storylines or if there were, they didn't really matter. I have grown tired of playing interactive movies at this point.

And this leads me to admit that I have been playing Fortnite since 2019 now and I still like it. The game is simple enough for me to play, and anyone can pick it up and play it. The storylines don't really matter, they're there in case you feel like going along with them. The original characters are colorful and cute, and the well-known heroes & heroines are there to draw in the older crowd. While a Gen Z might be content with the colorful characters introduced every season, older players like myself often choose to run around the island gunning down bots as Kratos from God of War, Master Chief from Halo, Ripley from the Alien films or the Predator from the 1987 film.

However, I'm a grown man so I don't get to practice this game much compared to some of the other players, many of whom are in another stratusphere of talented at this game. Fire one shot at them, and they're building a fort that looks like those old lego commercials where the smiling kid is putting together the set, but the footage is sped up ridiculously fast. Compare that to the numerous bots included to fill out the island to make 100 players. Picking off a bot feels rewarding when you first play but after a few weeks of playing, the bots are a joke. Picking off a human opponent, it's either a challenge or ridiculous, but picking off a player with a username that advertises a Gaming channel on youtube? Satisfying.

However, I see how Fortnite is part of the modern era of gaming - it's free to play, but it's full of content that you need to pay about 10$ every 3 months to enjoy. That's how we've gone from paying $50-$60 once for a game, and it was ours, forever if we wanted to keep it. The game's creators made a big chunk of money once from the game, and that was that. Now, They make the game "free to play" but nickel & dime the player. In some ways, that's fair, because piracy has often eaten into a gaming company's profits. In other ways, some players have paid hundred for battle passes every 3 months and V-bucks for the endless special content that is advertised. Yeah, it's cool to play as your favorite superheroes and TV & movie characters, Some you can unlock for free, but others can cost well over $10.

I get the hate for this game too. Everyone has a right to hate Fortnite for what it is, and how some "sweaty" players can ruin the game for someone just trying to have fun. If you don't take it too seriously, and you're content with the battle passes, which are loaded with added content, you can still have fun. I'm not a "hotel with WiFi builder" like some players are, but if I can make it to the last 10 players on the map and score a few eliminations before getting picked off by a sweaty player, i'm not mad. Once in a while, I can win matches, sometimes against sweaty players.

Fortnite is not for everyone. If you hate it, maybe colorful online shooters are just not your thing. Let the people who enjoy them, enjoy them.

Play for fun only
jvhvanhouten18 September 2022
The reason this game is popular is only because of the Battle Royale aesthetic. Save the World mode didn't attract as many people, and Creative Mode is an accessory for XP, points in-game you receive to earn rewards.

This game clearly tries to make a point that it is 'fair', which is simply not true. Pay-to-win skins, toxic and mature players, and even the occasional cheats, hacks, and glitches will cause a bad experience for those who play for accomplishment.

If you choose to download this game, it will not be a complete waste. But only download and play it either for fun, or for the Item Shop outfits (which include characters from Dragon Ball, Naruto, League of Legends, and even Star Wars) that you won't need a 'once attempt' at.

I love among us
korenandkoren3 October 2021
Among us is such an intricate game with so many different ways to play it.

You can be an impostor, you can be innocent, you can be ghost - you can be everything in this game! But you can't be? Exactly. You can't be non-sus.

You are always sus and this is why i am only igving the game a 10/10 and not an 11/10 because it is very very anoying when people call me sus and i say that i am not sus but they are like you ARE sus and i'm like :( im not and then they eject me out of the spaceship for being sus anyways go play among us it is 5 bucks well spent or you can be a little naughty boy and download it on phone >:) anyways go play it!!! Good game. 10/10.

great
maxjpaton12 October 2022
Fortnite battle Royale launched in September 2017 and in its fist couple years was a great game. Fun updates, no try-hards. This game was perfect and was far superior to PUBG. This game didn't have potato graphics or sweats. It was a fun game to chill out and relax after a long day with your friends. Chapter 1 is by far the best chapter ever, best map, best guns, best graphics. Everything about this part of Fortnite was perfect. They ruined it later though in S10. Ian season 10 they decided to add robots that shot a million missiles and shotgunned you to death. This was the downfall of fortnite. The game literally added a teaming device into SOLOS!!! Epic Games don't care about there game 9 season into its lifespan. Look at Apex Legends. They put good content into the game and shocker here. THEY CARE ABOUT THEIR COMMUNITY! Epic don't. They can't be asked because they are so caught up in a stupid storyline which nobody actually cares about!! S1 to 9 of this game is perfect. Then its gets worse from there.

Virgins will love it
MonkyMangler26 November 2018
The FitnessGram Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal bodeboop. A sing lap should be completed every time you hear this sound. ding Remember to run in a straight line and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark. Get ready!... Start.

Okay Gamers, can this review get 50 dislikes???????

Edit: YES, YES WE DID IT! , ALEXA INITIATE VICTORY ROYALE PLAYLIST

It is a very fun and addictive game. It has lost popularity in recent months but it is still the best Battle Royale Game.

Too much praise and hatred
OphisPeristera9 February 2019
Fortnite is a great game that everyone seems to either loathe or love. It may have taken it's aesthetic and dances (and countless other things) from Team Fortress 2, it's a cross platformer that won't be forgotten anytime soon. Most of the reviews are memers memeing against the flossing machine. I saw one review legitimately say the FitnessGram Pacer Test instead of an actual criticism. That being said, it doesn't deserve GOTY.

TLDR Fortnite is a good game.

The most overrated game in the universe....
arashasgul2 June 2019
I see nothing but Fortnite on Trendings. Just stop. You know.. there are CSGO, Brawl Stars, Portal and even Half Life! But the only things kids want is "Breaking the Fourth Wall Nite"

A very bad and overrated game
angryskullshow28 July 2019
I feel like this game is made to distract young 9 year olds from their parents, it is very cheaply made and keeps making updates that nobody wants instead of fixing the broken garbage they made to get a quick buck.

it's if overwatch and Minecraft had a baby and that baby grew up to go copy PUBG's homework, if you suck at shooting it doesn't matter, you can just become bob the builder and build a 5 star hotel with WiFi instantly after after getting shot with 1 bullet; the skill gap is bigger than any game ever, you would guarantee getting killed upon landing by a sweaty 8 year old and getting confused as to where he is because he had built an entire castle around you.

the game is just a mess of stolen ideas put together with duct tape and glue, I wouldn't recommend this game to anyone who wants a quality online experience.

Ladies and gentlemen, the greatest game of all time
jumrum6 August 2022
Try to name one game that compares to Fortnite. You can't. This is the greatest game of all times. Fortnite is more than a game. It's an anti-establishment revolution, a cultural juggernaut that threatens to topple Western social norms. If one doesn't understand this yet, they clearly have not given the game a true try.
